Antwet Backpacker's Inn and Rooftop Bar is the cheapest hotel or a place to stay in Dumaguete City. I found this place using Google Map and searched it on Facebook. I texted the number posted and messaged them on Facebook about their rates. The owner responded in an hour and that's the start of our normal conversation. Every time I shoot her a question, she responds like a friend. So, I thought this place is perfect. Also, it is a walking distance to the city's tourist destinations.
In the evening, the space on the rooftop opens as a bar. They have sumptuous menu, beer, wine and cocktail mixes. Because I need to wake up early the next day, I sat on one of the tables to feel the cool wind and drink a cup of coffee. The ambiance is very calm and quite while the reggae music plays. As the night goes deeper, the stars appear to be like dancing diamonds in the sky.
How to Get to Antwet Backpackers Hostel and Rooftop Bar: From the Dumaguete Airport, Port of Dumaguete City or any point in the city, you can ride in a tricycle and alight at Metrobank in front of the Freedom Park and Capitol Building. There are signboards pointing to Antwet Residences. The reception is at the 3rd floor.
If you are planning to visit the municipality of Valencia, the tourist spots and destinations are accessible via a habal-habal. At Valencia jeepney terminal, I met Kuya Agustino who brought me to these stunning places. You can contact him on Ph: 09973691174.
